From Mother to Daughter

From Mother to Daughteris a gift of advice to be given and received-a treasury of simple, powerful ideas that have transmitted the experience of generations. It all began when Sherry Conway Appel asked hundreds of women to recall the most memorable and valuable words their mothers had told them. There came an outpouring of things practical and indispensable, some familiar and many surprising. This beautiful book celebrates the special relationship between mothers and daughters, and captures the wisdom and common sense that comes from many lifetimes of experience. It is a gift that no one can give without remembering (and perhaps recording in it) something her own mother said.

Sherry Conway Appel is a mother who lives in Upper Marlboro, Maryland. She is married to Allen Appel, the author of From Father to Son.
